This can be used to determine the probability of packet loss or delay, according to various assumptions made about whether blocked calls are aborted (Erlang B formula) or queued until served (Erlang C formula). The Erlang-B and C formulae are still in everyday use for traffic modeling for applications such as the design of call centers.
For example, if an office has two telephone operators who are both busy all the time, that would represent two erlangs (2 E) of traffic; or a radio channel that is occupied continuously during the period of interest (e.g. one hour) is said to have a load of 1 erlang. When used to describe offered traffic, a value followed by “erlangs ...
Erlang (/ ˈ ɜːr l æ ŋ / UR-lang) is a general-purpose, concurrent, functional high-level programming language, and a garbage-collected runtime system.The term Erlang is used interchangeably with Erlang/OTP, or Open Telecom Platform (OTP), which consists of the Erlang runtime system, several ready-to-use components (OTP) mainly written in Erlang, and a set of design principles for Erlang ...
The value of %phone-book{'John Doe'} is '555-1212'. The list of keys and values can be extracted using the built-in functions keys and values, respectively. So, for example, to print all the keys of a hash:
Erlang (programming language), a programming language Erlang (unit) , a unit to measure traffic in telecommunications or other domains Erlang distribution , a probability distribution describing the time between events
In probability theory the hypoexponential distribution or the generalized Erlang distribution is a continuous distribution, that has found use in the same fields as the Erlang distribution, such as queueing theory, teletraffic engineering and more generally in stochastic processes.
The Weibull distribution or Rosin Rammler distribution, of which the exponential distribution is a special case, is used to model the lifetime of technical devices and is used to describe the particle size distribution of particles generated by grinding, milling and crushing operations. The modified half-normal distribution. [1]
In queueing theory, a discipline within the mathematical theory of probability, the M/M/c queue (or Erlang–C model [1]: 495 ) is a multi-server queueing model. [2] In Kendall's notation it describes a system where arrivals form a single queue and are governed by a Poisson process, there are c servers, and job service times are exponentially distributed. [3]
